Richard Wakely in association with Cork Opera House and Cork Midsummer Festival presents

Sol Picó Dance Company - El Llac de les Mosques

Sol Pico

Getting old is not just a matter of ageing.

Each wrinkle is a question in itself, and the mirror no longer tells that you’re still the most beautiful of them all…

On the other hand, how do you avoid that mid life crisis?

In any event, enjoy the journey and ignore the clock, there’s still sufficient time left to do the things you’ve always wanted to do.

Catalan dance phenomenon, Sol Picó returns to Cork Opera House, the scene of her triumphant performances for Cork European Capital of Culture 2005, with the Ireland and UK premiere of her latest show, El Llac de les Mosques. Complete with an exceptional live rock band on stage, Sol Picó explores the choices we all face in middle age with her usual mix of dynamic dance, surrealism and black humour. Get up close and personal with Spain’s reigning queen of contemporary dance and her pointed, red flamenco shoes.

Co-producers: Sol Picó cia de Danza, Mercat de les Flors, Centro Parraga.

With the generous financial support of the Institut Ramon Llull.

“European performance of the highest professional standards – don’t miss it”
The Irish Examiner on La Dona Manca Ó Barbi Superestar

“thought provoking, grotesque and witty”
The Irish Times on La Dona Manca Ó Barbi Superestar

(Cork European Capital of Culture, January 2005)

Booking also available through Cork Opera House. See How to Book for details.
